Kelsey Parker issued a heartbreaking admission, admitting she's "not ok" and is trying to "find herself again" after losing her third child.
The TV personality, who lost her 33-year-old husband Tom Parker to glioblastoma in March 2022, faced another devastating heartbreak in June with the loss of her third child.
On Wednesday, Kelsey shared that she just needs "space to breathe" and that she sometimes feels as though she has to carry the weight of the "whole world" on her shoulders.
In a video she posted to Instagram, she said: "Hi everyone, how are you all? I feel like I’ve been a little bit quiet, but you know what, that’s ok. It’s ok to not be ok all the time."
She continued: "We live in this world where everyone’s just trying to look like they’ve all got it figured out.
"Strength means smiling for everything, sometimes strength means being still, it means saying, I just need quiet for a little bit.
"Sometimes I just need calm, I just need space to breathe, to let my thoughts settle, to find myself again because life doesn’t stop and for me, it never really has.
"I’ve literally had the children and raised them, and I’ve had to show up every single day, sometimes I struggle.
"Sometimes I literally feel like I’m holding the whole world with my bare hands, but it’s the only thing I’ve ever known how to do.
"It’s pushing forward, it’s keeping on going even when it’s hard, even when I am tired, because my babies are watching me, they’re learning from me, they are my reason, my peace and my power.
"I’m not ok, but I don’t have to be. None of us do," she confessed.
She added: "What matters is that I keep moving, keep loving, keep believing that better days are coming. And they are, they’ve got to be."
Kelsey captioned the post: "We all hit that point where we just need quiet… to breathe, to reset, to find ourselves again.
"If that’s you...You’re not alone."
Back in August, Kelsey opened up about losing her baby boy in an emotional TV interview.
The 34-year-old shared the heartbreaking news that her son Phoenix was stillborn at 39 weeks.
Kelsey revealed how she has been coping with the loss of her baby boy, whom she was expecting with her partner, Will Lindsay.
She said: "My kids are my everything, they have got me through the darkest of times, I can’t believe I’m back here three and a half years later dealing with such a loss and devastation.
"But me and Will have the kids and they have to have normality, they have to go to school."
